The bill to esta blish Confederat
Home has been rejected by the Senate.
We are inclined to think that this is
wise, and that it will be better not to
establish Home, but if the old SOL
diers are to be provided for, let 1t be
done by pension. If any are really
in need they should have provision
made for them by the State; and by a
pension they could be helped without
leaving the ties and associations OF
their hone. Very few, if any, would
be willing to leave their homes and
family to go to a Home established oy
the State. While the same amount
given to them by a pension, would,
perhaps, be gladly accepted and be OF
great benefit 10 them if they could
have it and enjoy it at their homes
with their families. We have great
admiration and respect for the old
soldiers, and would regret to see the
State refuse to give the needy, if there
are any, help, but let it lee given where
it will do most good.

Ex.Treasurer Vincent Gets F11teeh
Years.

MONTGOMERY, Ala Dec. H.
Early this morning officers from the
Pratt mines called at the Jail for ex'
State Treasurer Isaac H. Vincent
and took him in charge. leaving on
the train for the mines. where Yin'
cent will be put to work.. He had an
talk with his wife and children last
night which was very affecting. The
announcement that he would be taken
off to-day was a great surprise to
them. The officers dc not state what
work Vincent will be put at. That
will be determined when they reach
the mines. They paid the cost, as
required by law, amounting to three
hundred dollars. The physicians
who examined Vincent yesterday
state that he has consumption and
express the opinion that he will no'
live five years, and that it is im!?oss'
bile for him to stand any hard labor
His reno, al was conducted quietly
and only tue usual crowd was at the
depot to zee the distinguished pr's
oner off. His term is ffteeD years

Horrible Es. Il. Accident.
SpeciGlto -tuqusta Chronicle.

ATLANTA, Ga, December ia hor-
rible accident occurred at Choccoloeco, on
the Georgia Pacific railroad. last night at
10 o'clock. A freight train loaded with
western produce left Birmingham early
Yesterday evening, passed Admission and
reached Choccolocco, going at the rate OF
twenty-five or thirty miles an hour.
Choccolocco was not a stopping point for
that train, which was through tram.
Somebody, either by accident or malice
aforethought, probably for the purpose
of iniuring the Georgia Pacific railroad
had turned the switch and locked 1t.
The main line thus ran into side track
what is known as 'block side track
with one end terminating abruptly. On
the side track we're five or six cars loaded
with coal or brick, and against these cars
the freight train crashed.
The engineer, Mr.. Carson, had taken
out at Admission his former fireman, col
ored man, and these two were killed Il
is simply impossible to describe the
wreck. it was the most horrible thing
ever witnessed, and every railroad MAJ
aboard.the train said openly that the!
had never seen anything comparable to Il
in point of horror.

The bill to reapportion the represen-
tatives in the Legislature, according to
the census of 1880, has passed the House.
We think the enumeration should
have been made in 1885, as directed by
the Constitution, but that not having
been done, We think it wrong to ap-
portion now by the census of 1880. In
fact, we fail to see where the Legisla-
ture has the authority to make the ap-
portionment by the census Of 1880, un-
der the provisions of the Constitution,
when it provides how the apportion-
ment shall be made. The Constitu-
ton provides that the census shall be
taken in 1875 and every tenth year
thereafter, and in case the enumera-
ton is not made according to this pro-
vision it is made the duty Of the Gov
ernor to have it effected as soon there-
after IS practicable. The census was

The attempt by the Legislature to
limit the working hours of children in
factories has failed. This may be well,
for possibly it is not we'll to legislate
too much about the contracts and
practices of private individuals, but
we are of the opinion that it is wrong
for children of ten years or under to
work as long and steadily as they gen.
orally do in our factories. It is doubt
full whether it is right to legislate
about the matter, but to our mind
there is little doubt that the working
ofthese children in the factories is in
inriouS to the children.

TRENTON, December l2.-At an inquest
held over the body of Jacob Burt, on
Saturday morning, the evidence pointed
very strongly 10 four paroes-Loulsa'
his second wife, Chainey, bis only daugh-
ter, and two negro men, Ephraim Mays
and Ed Dean. All the parties have tied
the county, the men taking the wife and
daughter with them. The evidence clearly
shows the murder to have been most
brutal one. Burt's skull was smashed TO
peices by the back of an axe, and the
BODY was dragged from the house and
taken about fifteen yards from his own
door and a little dirt thrown over him.
His feet were left uncovered and bis face
turned down. He was evidently buried
before life was extinct. The deceased
was quiet, peaceful mute, and trusted
laborer on Mr.. Pierce Days plantation
The juryrendered a verdict according to
the above facts.
